Yeah, I think the beanstalk idea would be a terrific costume...when Jack had the harp he was descending the beanstalk. Green pants, a few leaves and branches, an ax in your leg if you require some Halloween gore...as noted above it is also a fine piece of artwork. Well done, TG.

I designed this shirt based on the great Dr. Seuss poem, "The Sneetches."

To quote:

Now the Star-bellied Sneetches had bellies with stars.
The Plain-bellied Sneetches had none upon thars.
The stars weren't so big; they were really quite small.
You would think such a thing wouldn't matter at all.

Just curious...

I started out drawing a flow chart and "I am a Whiteboard" but then I looked at the one in the office and it was full of random not-quite-erased missives and I went with it. I could have titled it "Office Camo" maybe?

Thanks for asking about it. I thought it would do better but there are some truely AWESOME designs out there!

I would like to see something more on the shirt to show that the wearer is a giant. As it is, he's just a guy in a green shirt with a little robin hood climbing on him. You always to great work but I feel like you're coasting here.

I agree, you should have just made it on a transparent background, would have looked much better.

Hmm, I didn't notice all that until someone mentioned it. Guess I got a little overzealous on seeing a LoZ themed shirt. It is starting to look less appealing.

"silver" or "slate", for shirts, is usually this exact gray. The issue people are bringing up regarding the shirt color is that woot prints on Heather Gray, which is a bit more mottled, like a gym shirt. It's not a solid gray tone... there's a lot of textured gray shades, like this:
